Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing
Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 3 days agoI tried 3 just to see what all the interest was about, but couldn’t get into it. There were loads of guns and none of them seemed great or much different from each other. Was I supposed to collect them and sell them? I wanted to like it cos I enjoy the art style, maybe I should give it another go sometime.

That is part of the genre, yeah.
They’re procedurally generated within a range of possible effects and damage based off the “manufacturer” in-game
You’ll end up finding one you really like and using it for like 5 levels, while selling other loot, until you find one that jives more with your play style and is more powerful than your current loadout

Ah gotcha, cheers. I guess I’m old fashioned but I kinda just like a shotgun mostly when gaming.
But yeah I’m thinking maybe I should give it another try, I did really like the style.

My favorite weapon was a legendary rifle that had a shotgun mode, a lot of the guns have different modesc many shotguns, and its really easy to get legendaries (way too easy, while it was too hard in past games) I had a full inventory of legendaries constantly from mid way to endgame, kinda hated that because I liked ll my options. Liked the flamethrower rifle that when reloaded became a turret that ran around, abused those lol (got that legendary a few times in different forms)

I haven’t played 3, but loved 2. Still haven’t finished it, maybe should.
There’s a bunch of generic weapons (themed by manufacturer and weapon type), but there’s also some unique ones. Bane in particular was a really funny one to discover.
